    About this audiobook

    The Frog and the Fish prompts you to question how much you have been shaped by your culture - the water you live in.

    A powerful and challenging audio-book for young adults (though many will find it helpful) that explores the shaping effects of our culture through asking big questions and reflecting on big issues.

    Who are we, really? What’s the nature and purpose of the world? Why is there so much injustice and what can we do about it? What is the purpose of work? Are there traps with technology? What about sex and self-image? What’s the place of stuff in our lives? Does absolute truth exist? Is there a source of ultimate happiness?

    An Author's Republic audio production.
